To find the total number of minutes in 4 hours and 47 minutes, you can follow these steps:
-
Calculate the minutes in 4 hours: \( 4 \text{ hours} \times 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 240 \text{ minutes} \)
-
Add the extra 47 minutes: \( 240 \text{ minutes} + 47 \text{ minutes} = 287 \text{ minutes} \)
So, there are a total of 287 minutes in 4 hours and 47 minutes.
